Environmental Monitoring in the Pharmaceutical Sector

  • 2° EDITION: 12 June 2024
  • Online
  • Italian

Training overview

Since October 2015, Annex 15 of the European GMP has been in effect. With this revision, modern process aspects are also under discussion; there are some significant changes and many similarities to the FDA guideline on Process Validation.

The course “Qualification, process validation and cleaning validation” will cover the highlights of the new document and compare EU and FDA approaches.

The EMA guideline on “Dedicated Facilities and Exposure Limits for Cleaning Validation” and Annex 15 now address the Permitted Daily Exposure (PDE) approach: the course will explain the impact of these documents on Cleaning Validation.
